Have you checked with a urologist, especially recently? they may be able to spot an underlying problem. If that isn't the case, know that you aren't alone -- many others have the same problem or you wouldn't be able to get diapers in your size so easily. :)

See a Dr for sure. I also have a history with bed-wetting, but was dry for quite awhile before it came back when I was 25. It started as a couple times a month, then a couple times a week, then every night. Since you were always a bed-wetter, you probably have a compromised bladder and now the symptoms are getting worse. Hopefully, that is not the case and this is just a short wet spell. Are you afraid of diapers because you think someone will find out? I find it is more discreet to wear a diaper than do wash every day when living with other people.

Hang in there and see a doctor. It could help. I completely know where you're coming from too on the diapers. I hated it, but have come to accept and embrace it now. And very glad I did. Waking up to a dry bed is much better with them.

@akap I haven't but I'll definitely try to arrange it, thanks for your support. It helps :)

@inconmatt I guess it's just my ego. I feel ashamed thinking about it but I think I'm going to have to get over it. Thank you for sharing, I appreciate it and I'll definitely get lined up with a doctor to talk it out.

You are not alone with your problems and I hope you will find a solution which is good for you.
I have accepted wearing diapers a long time ago and I can tell it isn't that bad. Only when you have to increase your padding you may have to adjust again.

Hang in there! I am currently living with a roommate who really doesn't like me, so I am struggling to find discreet ways to handle the issue. I know that it's intimidating to go to the doctor, but please do. It's not your fault in any way, and the doctors are there to help you. I have found that getting a waterproof mattress topper to really help. I found one for a twin bed at bed, bath, and beyond for about $20.00 online, and it works great. Best of luck to you and take care.

Me I'm just another person who lives with needing a diaper (or nappy as we say in England) and I used one just about every night of my life except for about 3 years when I rebelled & refused to wear them. But my disability never went away....eventually I learned they were more comfortable than wet sheets !
Consulting a specialist is never a bad idea...just to check its nothing serious.

Dude accept the unacceptable. If diapers are the solution then try them out. If a plastic sheet and bedwetter pad on the bed works then go that way. Either way do what you feel most comfortable.

For me a waterproof mattress and bedwetter pad on my side of the bed I sleep on works. I am only bedwetting a few times a month so no need for diapers for me. But if diapers make it easier and you don't mind wearing them then use them. Its all about what you want to do, not what your conditions says you need to do.
